    Tar Hollow State Park Campground

    Memorial Weekend 2020

    After being cooped up, we (3 young adults) decided to get out and decided on this campground that was new to all of us. The campground was very low key and made for an easy going weekend! We weren’t too keen on most of the parks amenities, but enjoyed just sitting around the fire the whole time. Pros: -staff was cleaning common areas (bathroom and showers) either once or twice a day -campsite 12 was incredible space and had an added bonus of a deck structure over the creek

    Other notes: -WiFi available, but only right by the main office/general store -no service for AT&T or Verizon -Fire tower not accessible -Lake tested high for a bacteria and swimming is not recommended

    Corona Virus Notes: -only Ice and Firewood available for purchase at General Store -putt putt, boat and bike rentals, and game box rentals not available -nearby Hocking Hills trails were closed

    Jackson Lake Park

    Campground with Water Park

    I stayed at this campground because they hosted a wedding I attended. I chose to stay in a cabin, which was pretty pricy for what it was. for $175, it was a basic cabin with a queen bed and 2 twin bunk-beds, a very small bathroom with a toilet and shower, and a small kitchenette with a microwave, sink, and mini-fridge. The cabin was somewhat dirty - dust on the floor and spider webs in the corner. It had no bed linens, or towels, and the bathroom didn't even have a mirror.

    There is a "lake" (more of a large pond) on the property, with fishing, and large inflatables to play on in the summer. There is also a disc golf course. The nearby town Lithopolis is cute, with some local coffee and dining, as well as antique shops.

    Top O' The Caves Campground

    Great Campground for everyone

    This Campground was pretty great! My wife and I stayed in a rather large tent site and my parents stayed in an RV site. The RV site was rather small without much personal space. But it worked for what they needed. The tent site was decently secluded and near a nice small pond.

    The campground put on a free BBQ for all of the guests one of the nights! It was very good and well thought out. They also put on a very long firework show that night which was awesome! We must have came the perfect weekend.

    The restrooms were rather large and and worked fine. As well as the showers. There are also a few nice looking cabins! There is a camp store in the office, but it's rather small without anything interesting. There is a large barn with a few arcade games that the kids seemed to like.

    The best part about this Campground?? DOGS ARE ALLOWED!! We were so grateful of this because we love taking our dog camping with us!

    Lake Hope State Park Campground

    Great spot for getting prepared for zaleski and going kayaking

    Several campsites are on a slope so this calls for being creative with placement of tent.
    Firewood available for purchase on site. Lake Hope lodge provides great warm and dry spot for delicious food.

    Several activities available, fishing available anywhere on the lake, kayak rental for $10 and good size lake.

    Very clean pit toliets and running water available dispersed throughout the park. Several hiking trails, zaleski is nearby, hocking hills is 30 minutes away. Moonville tunnel and iron furnace in the area.

    Burr Oak State Park Campground

    Beautiful but questionable design.

    We stayed down at the "lake" spots which are not on the lake but quite above it. Our first site was #19, we were even hesitant to park our 23ft camper in it, but we did and then realized that as soon as we try to get in or out of the camper, it was a steep drop down 5ft. All the sites around this part were steep and tents were pitched on hillsides and most people only stayed for 1 night. We moved to a flatter spot but still had some fun fanagaling the camper in it. Very quiet campground during the week but as soon as Friday hits, it's crazy and loud. We had some neighbors who didn't respect the Quiet hours starting at 10pm and were told very nicely by the Park Ranger and still made a huge fuss. Glad we only stayed for 2 nights.

    Well worth the wait

    We waited awhile to be able to get in here. It was awesome. Tipis are very cool and the outdoor shower is my favorite part. Short hike to the Rock bridge. Well worth it

    Dillon State Park Campground

    A Weekend at Dillon State Park

    I camped at this state park in the very scenic rolling hills of central Ohio on a hot and sunny weekend and was happy to find plenty of shade. There are 183 electric sites in this campground, many shady, and almost all having at least partial shade. Pets are permitted in all sites except 1 through 32. These electric sites are divided into three sections with restrooms with flush toilets, shower houses and playgrounds in each. The restrooms and shower houses I used were very clean.

    There is also a walk-in section of non electric sites that are different than what I usually think of as walk-in sites because parking was just yards away.

    The camp store was well stocked and probably has anything you forgot. They also sell firewood.

    The huge 18 hole disc golf course seemed to be a popular attraction.

    I enjoyed the five well marked hiking trails through the woods. These trails range from easy to difficult, the longest being 4.4 miles.

    From the campground, you will have to drive to the beach or hike a couple miles though the woods as I did. My only complaint about this campground is the beach. There are no lifeguards or concessions and I am told, that after a rain, this beach can look uninviting. Near the beach is a wading pool with a fountain for younger children. Adjacent to the beach area there are tennis courts, basketball courts and a very shady picnic area with tables and pavilions.

    There are boat launches for your boats at the marina but the only watercraft that can be rented are kayaks and canoes.

    Dillon State Park Campground

    Cabins are fun for families, sometimes full of skunks, great trails

    We enjoyed renting a cabin with the family at several different times.  

    The mountain bike trails are so rugged and fun, difficult for biking.  You can hike them too, and they offer nice views of the lake.

    The area seems to have a skunk issue at times, and it can get smelly near the cabins.

    The cabins have nice fire pits and kitchens have enough space and facilities to make a nice family dinner.

    The lake is large enough to boat on and you can do paddling sports there easily. 

    The park has tennis courts and lots of other recreation: boating, hiking, swimming, biking.

    Burr Oak State Park Campground

    What You Make Of It

    Luxurious accommodations and continental breakfasts won’t be found here…..a space to unwind and reflect will. The sites are sloped and ill paved but the sights, the sights are quintessential Southeast Ohio. Rolling hills dotted with little burgs where the oil has dried up but the resolve has yet to. A slight traverse down the hill lends views normally reserved for travel mags and postcards if just a bit of adventure is employed.


Guide to Rockbridge

Rockbridge, Ohio sits at approximately 850 feet elevation in the Hocking Hills region, characterized by sandstone cliffs, hemlock forests, and gorges carved by glacial meltwater. The area experiences distinct seasons with humid summers reaching 85°F and winter lows around 20°F, affecting camping conditions throughout the year. Campgrounds near Rockbridge typically remain open from April through October, with limited winter operations at select locations.

What to do

Hiking to Rock Bridge: Access this natural sandstone formation via a trail directly from At Boulders Edge Cabin and Tipi Retreat. A visitor noted, "Short hike to the Rock bridge. Well worth it."

Fishing on Pine Lake: Cast a line at Tar Hollow State Park, which offers a small fishing pond accessible to campers. "The fishing pond for our grandson" was highlighted as a "pro" by a reviewer who stayed in July 2020.

Swimming options: Cool off at Lake Hope State Park Campground where "they have a nice clean lake" with "a pretty spacious beach area." The park also offers paddle boat rentals for more water recreation.

Mini golf and games: Several campgrounds feature recreational facilities beyond hiking. One visitor at Top O' The Caves Campground described it as "straight out of a movie with a mini golf, arcade and small pool. Camp store had a little bit of everything."

What campers like

Private camping areas: Campers appreciate secluded spots away from crowds. At Tar Hollow State Park Campground, "it's a very secluded campsite so it really feels like you're one with nature."

Clean facilities: Modern bathroom facilities rank high in camper satisfaction. Hilltop Resorts received praise for their "bathroom/shower facility are private individual units and are the cleanest we have ever seen!"

Wildlife viewing: The natural setting offers opportunities to observe local fauna. One camper at Top O' The Caves noted, "Plenty of wildlife to see. This place brings you back to your roots of nature."

Yurt camping options: For those seeking alternative accommodations, yurt camping near Rockbridge, Ohio provides a middle ground between tents and cabins. Geneva Hills Camp includes "yurt accommodations with picnic tables and fire rings."

What you should know

Cell service limitations: Be prepared to disconnect. One reviewer of Lake Hope State Park noted there is "no cell service at even the top of the hills" making it "a chance to 'get away' from the modern life."

Reservation timing: Popular sites fill quickly during peak season. At Hocking Hills KOA Holiday, reservations should be made well in advance for summer weekends.

Trail marking concerns: Some parks have confusing trail systems. A visitor to Tar Hollow State Park warned, "the hiking paths are not clearly marked and I am embarrassed to admit I did get lost in the woods."

Weather considerations: The region can experience significant fog and rain. A Tar Hollow camper advised: "Beware of parking down there if its raining or you expect rain. There were a lot of people, from cars to trucks, that got stuck down that little hill and had to be towed out!"

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly amenities: Look for campgrounds with dedicated play areas. Buckeye Lake-Columbus East KOA offers "tons of stuff for kids, they had a blast!" including "a bounce house" and playground equipment.

Cabin options for beginners: First-time campers might prefer cabins. One family shared, "The little cabins you can rent out are awesome! They have bunk beds in them and are just enough to have shelter to sleep in and then spend the day outside."

Nature programs: Check for scheduled activities led by park staff. At Lake Hope State Park, "there is a naturalist who conducts several activities" including "an hour+ guided hike down the creek to explore for wildlife and plants."

Site selection for tents: Choose wisely if tent camping with kids. A visitor to Tar Hollow advised, "Pay attention to the descriptions in the reservation website" as "the different spots have different amounts of slope."

Tips from RVers

Site leveling challenges: Many RV sites in the region require leveling equipment. At Burr Oak State Park Campground, one camper mentioned, "There are some really beautiful sites, but there are only a few with electric."

Access road conditions: Some parks have difficult approach roads. When visiting Hocking Hills KOA, a fifth-wheel owner warned, "The little road going up to the campground is VERY bumpy. It's not the campground road, it belongs to the Township, so its completely out of their ability to make improvements."

Delivery services: Several campgrounds offer convenient on-site services. At Logan KOA, they "deliver wood directly to you" and "deliver a pizza from the front office" to your site.

Width considerations: Site dimensions vary significantly between campgrounds. A visitor to Buckeye Lake KOA noted their site "was one of the widest in the strip and would have suited us and our pups just fine had we been able to really enjoy the space."
